Opis

Genre: Humorous fiction, coming of age, nostalgia Age: Appropriate for ages 10 and up King in a Court of Fools begins with a book - The Book of Tom - a journal writing assignment from Tom Ryan's sixth-grade teacher, Sister Jeanne Lorette. That's what she called it. Tom called it punishment. In it, he chronicles the adventures of the Caswell Gang, a group of siblings and friends with two things in common - their love of adventure and their allegiance to Tom, their king. The 1950s book was misplaced a long time ago, and all the children have since grown up, but Harry, Tom's youngest brother, still remembers it and retells for us one of its stories in a nostalgic, heartwarming, and humorous way that will have you wishing for adventure, too.
